How do we know Jesus' divine and human nature is true?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus is recognized as both fully God and fully man, rooted in biblical declarations like Micah 5:2 and affirmed by the teachings on the Incarnation.

The dual nature of Christ—fully divine and fully human—is a core doctrine of the Christian faith, underpinned by scripture. Micah 5:2 lays the foundation for recognizing Jesus’ divine origin, referring to His 'goings forth' from everlasting, while also affirming His human lineage by being born of a woman in Bethlehem. The apostle Paul reinforces this in Galatians 4:4, stating, 'When the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his son, made of a woman.' This profound mystery of the Incarnation is described as 'God manifest in the flesh,' encapsulating the unique union of the divine Son of God with human nature. Thus, through both prophetic scripture and New Testament accounts, we see the truth of Jesus’ complex nature affirmed.
